Kefir and Wild Blueberries: The Perfect Pair for Better Health

Lifeway Kefir is a well-known superfood workhorse to keep on hand at all times that is great for your gut health, skin health, mood, immune system, muscles, and more. Packed with protein and live probiotics, it’s also an excellent source of calcium, potassium, and important vitamins including D3, B12, and vitamin K2.

The probiotics in kefir provide your gut with the good bacteria that it needs to thrive, but probiotics aren’t the only thing it needs. Our guts thrive from high-fiber plant foods that are rich in gut-healthy compounds. That’s why we’re excited to share the benefits of wild blueberries with you, since these tiny berries are packed with gut healthy nutrients, along with benefits for skin, heart, and brain health. The most well-known brand of wild blueberries is Wyman’s, who makes incredible frozen fruit products with wild blueberries being their most popular product.

Just like kefir, wild blueberries are a must-have superfood to keep in your kitchen. They contain twice the amount of antioxidants as regular cultivated blueberries, and they are rich in gut-healthy fiber with 6 grams per cup. Wild blueberries are also packed with polyphenols, an antioxidant-like compound that feeds good bacteria in the gut acting as a prebiotic. They’re being called one of the best fruits you can eat for your gut, brain, and heart health, as Real Simple recently detailed in an article summarizing a recent study done on wild blueberries’ benefits.

Wyman’s is a family owned business in Maine that specializes in wild blueberry production, and you’ve likely seen their vibrant packaging in the frozen aisles of the supermarket before. Their wild blueberries are frozen at peak harvest, so they retain as many of the antioxidants and other nutrients wild blueberries contain as possible. Next time you’re shopping for your favorite Lifeway Kefir product at the store, be sure to pick up a bag of one of their frozen fruit varieties, since they make an excellent smoothie pairing for our creamy, probiotic-rich kefir products that we know you’ll love as much as we do.

Wild Blueberry Kefir Smoothie with Lifeway Kefir and Wyman’s Wild Blueberries

We blended up Wyman’s wild blueberries and Lifeway Kefir in our Wild Blueberry Kefir Smoothie that also includes gut-nourishing and heart-healthy flax and chia seeds for fiber, anti-inflammatory omega-3’s, and other nutrients including magnesium, calcium, iron, and potassium. Additionally, this smoothie contains soothing banana for a little extra sweetness and a thick, creamy texture, plus fresh mint that is excellent for digestion. It’s quick to make, refreshing, and will have you feeling great all day long.
